His
research interests include intelligent user interfaces, natural
language processing, information retrieval and mining, dialogue
systems, common-sense modelling, and semantic (explainable)
machine learning methods for cognitive computing and improved
usability. This includes multimodal-multisensor interfaces for medical and health systems and Industry 4.0 in particular, common-sense and (interactive) machine learning methods for human computer interfaces, knowledge discovery, information extraction, and cognitive modelling with ontologies. He has published over 200 peer-reviewed scientific articles, and has been recipient of the German High Tech Champion Award in 2011. As a principal investigator he leads both national and European projects from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, the Federal Ministry of Health, most recently the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community, and Horizon Europe. He's the former Editor-in-Chief of the German Journal of Artificial Intelligence (2018-24). His application of multimodal multisensor interfaces is having industrial impact, for example SmartWeb's multimodal interaction design and technical infrastructure by Apple (Siri). |
